Well, we couldn't win Origin this year, so I'm happy we got one up in the cobbler challenge,
00:04
but, nah, it's great, yep, I love to fly the flag for Queensland, and bear as well.
00:09
So I went down to get a little pup, I get some dogs from over the border in New South
00:14
Wales, and I went down and I had this little pup, and he was there, he was probably three
00:20
months old, on a chain, tied to a kennel, and the whole time I was there he was just
00:25
watching me the whole time, every move I took, and at the end of the morning when I was finished
00:32
there I said to the owner, I said, what's the story with the big smokey pup, and he
00:36
said, oh, it's at the end of the previous litter and no one, he hadn't been taken yet,
00:40
and I said, well, I'll take him for sure, and yeah, the rest is history as they say.
00:44
They've got to be up at daylight and want to go to work, and he loves that, and then
00:48
yeah, then he's equally as happy with the kids as well if they're mucking around him,
00:53
so he's just, yeah, loves to work, and then, yeah, no, he's a great, fantastic dog.
00:59
Well, I can't take him to the pub, so he may be getting an extra dipper of bickies tonight,
01:03
but for him he'd just love to go to work tomorrow, that's probably, he wouldn't want a day off
01:09
at all, but I'll give him an extra pat and a few more copper bickies tonight, and that'll
01:13
be about it I think.
